How does the single-row ball design of the 6000 series bearing affect its performance?

1. Carrying capacity
Radial carrying capacity: The single-row ball design enables the bearing to withstand greater loads in the radial direction. This design improves the radial carrying capacity of the bearing by optimizing the contact area and contact stress distribution between the ball and the raceway.
Axial carrying capacity: Although the single-row ball design has a relatively limited carrying capacity in the axial direction, the deep groove design of the 6000 series bearing enables it to still withstand axial loads to a certain extent. This design enables the bearing to handle a certain axial load while bearing radial loads, thereby improving the comprehensive carrying capacity of the bearing.
2. Operation stability
Reduce friction and wear: The single-row ball design reduces friction and wear inside the bearing because the number of balls is small and the contact area between the balls and the raceway is relatively small, thereby reducing friction and wear.
Improve operation accuracy: The single-row ball design makes the bearing run more smoothly because the balls are more evenly distributed, reducing the unstable operation caused by too many balls. This design helps to improve the operation accuracy and stability of the bearing.
3. Space Utilization
Compact structure: The single-row ball design makes the 6000 series bearings have a compact structure, which is suitable for applications with limited space. This design not only reduces the volume and weight of the bearing, but also improves the utilization of space.
Easy to install and maintain: The compact structure makes the installation and maintenance of the bearing more convenient. Users can easily install and remove the bearing in a limited space, reducing maintenance costs and difficulties.
4. Service life
Improve durability: Because the single-row ball design reduces friction and wear, the service life of the 6000 series bearings is relatively long. This design allows the bearing to maintain good performance when subjected to large loads and high-speed operation.
Reduced failure rate: The single-row ball design also reduces the failure rate of the bearing. Because the balls are evenly distributed and the number is moderate, the risk of failure caused by too many or too few balls is reduced.
